Flamengo did not come out of a 0-0 draw with Palmeiras on Sunday (21), for the third round of the Brazilian Championship. Now, focusing on the Libertadores da América, Rubro-Negro already knows that it will have two absences for this Wednesday's game (24).


That's because Gabigol and Everton Cebolinha will remain Flamengo's absences by Tite. While number 10 is serving a two-year suspension for attempting to defraud an anti-doping test, the owner of number 11 is recovering from an injury to his right calf.


In fact, both Gabigol and Everton Cebolinha were absent from the game against Palmeiras , for Brasileirão. Furthermore, Tite chose to spare players like De La Cruz and Pedro, placing Allan and Carlinhos, respectively, in the starting lineup.


It is worth remembering that Gabigol must be judged (suspension effect) next Monday .

NOW WHAT?


Now, overcoming the absences, Flamengo is preparing for its next match in the Libertadores da América. On Wednesday (24), Rubro-Negro will face Bolívar (BOL), starting at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), in a game valid for the third round of the group stage of the South American competition, at the Hernando Siles Stadium.

Mirassol will make just one change to the starting lineup to face Flamengo this Saturday (09), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the 19th round of the Brazilian Championship. Leão defends a three-month unbeaten run in the match, while Mengão seeks to remain in the lead.


After serving a suspension in the victory over Vasco, left-back Reinaldo returns to the team, taking Felipe Jonatan's place . Leão's top scorer in the Brasileirão, the number 6 has seven goals in the competition and is the team's official penalty taker.


PROBABLE LINEUP


Mirassol's likely lineup is : Walter; Lucas Ramon, João Victor, Jemmes and Reinaldo; Neto Moura, Danielzinho and Gabriel; Negueba, Edson Carioca and Chico da Costa.

IMPORTANT DEFAULT IN THE BANK


The main absence will be coach Rafael Guanaes , suspended for a third yellow card . Without the manager, assistant Ivan Baitello will be on the sidelines for the club's debut at Maracanã. Guanaes' team hasn't been defeated since May 5th, when they lost to Red Bull Bragantino.

In the medical department, defender Da Silva is out, although he didn't play for the team in 2024—his last appearance was for the B team last season. On the other hand, defender Luiz Otávio, a regular starter in 2024, left the medical department but hasn't yet played this year due to successive injuries.

Leão is in 5th place in the Brasileirão, with 28 points, and is looking to score points to remain in the G6. If they beat Flamengo this Saturday and Bahia stumbles against Fluminense, Mirassol will finish the round in the G4 , those who qualify directly for the group stage of the Libertadores.

Flamengo ended, this Friday (8), at Ninho do Urubu, the preparation for the duel against Mirassol , scheduled for this Saturday, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The match is valid for the last round of the first round of the Brazilian Championship .


CHECK OUT THE PROBABLE LINEUP


Coach Filipe Luís should send onto the field a Flamengo with: Rossi; Royal, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Allan, Evertton Araújo and Arrascaeta; Luiz Araújo (Plata), Pedro (Bruno Henrique) and Samuel Lino.


IMPORTANT RETURNS

Coach Filipe Luís will be without Jorginho, suspended for his third yellow card. However, he will have important reinforcements . Luiz Araújo and Bruno Henrique, who were on training due to pain and fatigue, trained normally in recent days and are available again. The former competes for a spot with Plata, while the latter can play as a false nine.


Another return is Michael, who has recovered from a left ankle injury but is expected to start on the bench. Midfielder Carrascal, the latest addition to the squad, could also make his debut, likely coming on in the second half .

ABSENCE CAUSES DOUBT

For Jorginho's spot, Allan and Evertton Araújo are expected to form the defensive midfield duo . Varela, who previously played as a makeshift midfielder under Filipe Luís, is a potential outsider. Pulgar, De la Cruz, and Danilo remain in the injury department.

Flamengo, the leader of the Brasileirão with 37 points, has the same number of points as second-place Cruzeiro , but has played a game less. Mirassol, meanwhile, is the surprise package: it sits in fifth place with 28 points, just one point behind Bahia, which rounds out the top four.
